Hollywoke is going broke. There is no such thing as a blockbuster anymore. Most new films are unwatchable garbage and even big marketing dollars don’t draw interest. The recent Disney bomb , The Little Mermaid, is proof. Nothing Disney produces is any good, and even if it was there are too many people who want nothing to do with increasing their bottom line...
Like anything else, film is not dead, it is just temporarily out of sorts because it has lost its mission...
I think we can look forward to the death of the old guard and the emergence of something entirely new...
I feel sorry for that young lady that was cast as the mermaid. The memes have been so brutal.
She seems like a decent young person, but damn.
Disney does not give a fuck about their talent today.
All about woke.
Nothing more.
She know what she was getting into. Her grandma told her to go for it.
I just don't understand why they didn't make it all black. If you want a black little mermaid, make it all black. Otherwise, it's really just for interracial relationships.
Great point.
My g/f was pissed that I refuse to watch it. I made my points. It ended with me saying, "Imagine they made a live action Princess and the Frog, and the black princess was played by a white girl?". What would happen then?
All hell would break loose! There would be violence and rioting at Disney and beyond. They would burn it to the ground!
But if you don't like the fact that they cast a black girl in the part of a white redheaded character as a woke pandering play, you are RACIST!
Her Grandmother told her that when she was a little girl her Gran mother told her that Mermaids are black, not white no matter what she hears
I legit like Halle Bailey, they could have done a lot more with her. They could have just as easily put her into a film where she fits and wrote new material. Instead they just shoehorned her into Ariel to tick off a diversity box.
Talent is dime a dozen. There are millions of unemployed actors.
Her eyes are set too wide apart for her own good.
Fetal alcohol syndrome
Like a gator 🐊 🤣
I feel slightly guilty that this really puts me off.
I don't care how nepo-baby "royalty" feel.
